Exactly how are you trying to feel it ?

By definition, electric current is the flow of charge through the conductor.

You can't feel the flow of anything through the conductor unless some of it

flows through you.

That's exactly how an ammeter measures current in the conductor. You cut

the conductor, and connect the ammeter in the space, so that any current in

the conductor has to go through the meter. Similarly, you don't feel current

unless it's flowing through you.

Just be careful, and don't go around inserting yourself into circuits in an attempt

to feel currents. You see, the muscles and nerves in your body all operate electrically,

and it only takes a very small current to make nerves and muscles go totally haywire,

and even to kill. Do it the smart, safe way ... use a meter.

Why the temp of metallic wire rises when a current passes through it?

When current is passed through the wire, the negatively charged electrons (Current) face resistance as the molecules of the conductor block their way. These moving electrons collide with the molecules of the conductor and heat is produced which heats up the metallic wire.

Is copper white a conductor or insulator?

Copper is a metal, so it has metallic bonding. This means that the electrons are free to move & carry a current. So copper is a good conductor of heat & electricity.
